God is Up to Something New - March 3, 2024

With Pastor Mike Curry

God is Up to Something New
Isaiah 43:18-21
Main Idea: The past is a great place celebrate and learn from, but a terrible place to dwell
because God is up to something new right now.
Introduction
We’re all here with baggage!
The Two Challenges of New Things:
1. Forgetting: The Challenge of our Past v. 18
a. The Danger in Remembrance
b. The Difficulty of Dwelling
2. Seeing: The Challenge Regarding our Future v. 19-21
a. Trusting God’s Promise
b. Experiencing God’s Presence
c. Envisioning God’s Power
d. Enjoying God’s Provision
Conclusion & Application (Philippians 3:10-14)
1. Celebrate past victories (blessings) and learn from past mistakes, but move on.
2. Envision the new that God can do in you now and let it happen!
